Interesting site but you have to dig for further information.
ENRYCHER – SERVICE ORIENTED TEXT ENRICHMENT is a paper that I located about the site.
From the introduction:
In our experience, many knowledge extraction scenarios generally consist of multiple steps, starting with natural language processing, which are in turn used in higher level annotations, either as entities or document-level annotations. This in turn yields a rather complex dependency scheme between separate components. Such complexity growth is a common scenario in general information systems development. Therefore, we decided to mitigate this by applying a service-oriented approach to integration of a knowledge extraction component stack. The motivation behind Enrycher[17] is to have a single web service endpoint that could perform several of these steps, which we refer to as ‘enrichments’, without requiring the user to bother with setting up pre-processing infrastructure himself.
Note the critical statement: “…without requiring the user to bother with setting up pre-processing infrastructure himself.”
The lower the bar to entry, the more participants you will have. What’s unclear about that?
